16-4. The thrill of final exams goes hand in hand with youth.

Kainel left for the training ground while preparing for his grade exam, saying that he was practicing a special swordsmanship behind my back.

So I stayed alone in my dormitory room and sorted out today’s events.

‘Currently, the possibility that the power of the demon king is intertwined is the highest.’

The fact that our saintess did not appear even after asking the wise man came as a great shock to me.

Is it okay to say wolf ears or a tail? It can be dangerous because our saintess is specific. Actually, that was the case when fighting Magic Hat.

“…”

The condition of losing a loved one is not a pretense.

If she recklessly spread rumors, Magic Hat could target her. Showed me a maniacal obsession,

My hands tremble just thinking about the fact that I killed the nameless saintess in . If you die in the prequel, you won’t be able to see it in the original .

“..Maybe I should wait a little longer.”

I think it would be better to at least completely dispel the demon lord’s power and go after knowing the information. This is also similar to the battery if you gain knowledge of the past and future.

You’d better be careful. Now, even within the academy, there may be people from the Church of the Warriors, so it’s dangerous.

“If it weren’t for authority, it would be worth it….”

It was confirmed through a series of events that the demon king could pass through the barriers at will. I let out a deep sigh in frustration.

Around the time I was sorting out my troubles, translucent letters appeared before my eyes.

[Kynel♡Ariel 34% ‘NEW!’]

Oh, they’re up.

Sometimes the update came so quickly that I thought it wouldn’t work this time.

This is a status window that you may not know. In case of failure, the penalty is not death, and there is no stat window or skill window, so you cannot use fraudulent abilities.

It was then. A gurgling sound echoed from the stomach.

“..I missed lunch.”

Today, because I comforted the crown prince like that, I couldn’t order food from the menu.

I was completely hugged, so I couldn’t even leave. It was to the point where I was asked to explain what was going on to the brave couple who came out late.

‘People are so sad, I couldn’t help it.’

I kept silent. Anyway, there are things to say and things not to do.

My mother was captured by Magic Hat and turned into a card. Cainel and Ariel are too weak to tell the truth. Besides, it can’t be restored to its original state yet.

‘But I’ve never seen her cry like that.’

To be honest, I was surprised. I only knew that I was a person with no emotions. Did her personality change because of Empress Belin Grancia?

‘That’s why I was obsessed with strength in .’

It was something I forgot because it was the character of Mary Sue. I missed the feature of black hair and gold eyes because I kept not seeing it because of the glass armor.

You should have taken him to a party when I fought Magic Hat. I never had anything like that, so there was no contact. I only knew him as a strange person who only revealed a lot of bravado and only strong people.

Looking at it like that, there were a lot of differences.

“I have this too.”

I remembered the chocolate cake on the desk. The one I received before returning to the dormitory at the Imperial Bakery.

I took it out of the box, scooped a mouthful of it with a fork, and bit it. The taste of sweet chocolate lingered on the tip of my tongue.

Well, deliciously sweet. Seems more expensive than what I was going to pick out.

“Did you say it was a good house….”

I tried to say no, but Mardol pushed me in. It was too late for her to order food again because she was talking to him.

“..I did the obvious thing. It’s a bit embarrassing.”

He said he wanted to reciprocate, so he was forcibly handed over. I accepted it because I became a bad person if I refused.

When I opened the packaging, a chocolate cake that looked too luxurious was revealed, to the point of embarrassment. Is the Lupus I saw in the sequel really him?

“..This is not very expensive.”

Rich cream and chocolate, mild sweetness that is not too sweet. Although the appearance was very different from the cake I wanted.

It was a meticulous choice, enough to let me know how much I appreciate it. Because it was wrapped in double and triple layers and had protection magic and even freezing magic applied.

“…”

At this level, it is safe to say that he is a completely different person like Nex. Rather, that part felt very strange. There is a gap with what I know.

“..Are you really the same person?”

As I savored the sweet cake, I looked at the possibility that he might not be a double.

‘First, physical strength is incredibly strong.’

This must be because he inherited the lineage of Emperor Locke. In the case of a descendant of the ten heroes, it was common to resemble the characteristics of that hero.

For example, black hair or golden eyes. There was no one with white hair like our saintess.

Nex’s hair is unusually purple, but he inherited his father’s influence, so he was no exception.

As usual, I put my hand on my chin and munched on the cake, recalling the various characteristics of Mardol.

‘Secondly, a glass armor that looks like a masterpiece.’

In the game, he was wearing only the clothes of the imperial family, so anyone could see that he was ‘Ah, he is a high-ranking person’.

It’s similar, but it made me feel strange that they were wearing white armor that was so clean and transparent that the other person’s face could be seen through.

‘Because it is a device that can withstand Magic Hat’s attacks. Probably right.’

A symbol that is completely opposite to me. Maybe it’s because of the relationship between the main character and the player.

If you think about the armor he wore when he turned into the Demon King of Light, he looked exactly like him, as if he had done a decalcomanie.

There is no way that such good-looking equipment will not appear in a sequel.

“..Isn’t this really a possibility of someone else?”

No matter how you think about it, it’s suspicious. He eats without taking off his helmet. It hides its true identity as if even a ninja could jump out of the thick armor.

The hands were oddly small, too, and the bearded perverts couldn’t be more likely to call it a design mistake.

‘Masterpiece is not like this!! They are noblemen who make production a success with 0.06% While shouting, ‘I’m done talking.’

Dwarves are a race of craftsmanship. The blacksmith, who was called the immovable mountain among the ten, was like that.

“The real prince I knew could be a double.”

Combining these possibilities, it is speculated that the small hands did it on purpose to conceal information. Even if the owner changes, there will be no suspicion.

Perhaps it was something sweet, my brain turned faster. So far, I’ve been worried a lot, so I’ve organized the thoughts that I couldn’t come up with.

“..If you really want to do it, you just have to put it on and imitate it.”

The hum of his voice was even mysterious. Because of the structure of the helmet, anyone wearing it would not be able to recognize it.

Mardol’s behavior in accepting the Queen of Hearts was too emotional to leave open the possibility that Was real.

“The trauma must have been a magic hat… It wouldn’t be strange if I thought he was dead.”

The demon king of truth famous as a mad magician. His story showed a terrible evil even to put it in his mouth.

Just like when he called me “My Prince” On a day when he didn’t have a one-on-one meeting and gave goosebumps, it was the same here at Grand Hearts Academia.

This is the first time I’ve actually thought of stealing a card. Because there is no such feature in the game.

Perhaps the one I met now is the real lupus. In the sequel, he was actually fake! And it might surprise the players.

A company that loves Easter eggs.

That was Fantasia Game. Even if the drift was completely broken in the sequel, that part did not change.

“…If you look closely, it’s really evil.”

If Lupus wasn’t even a double, then it would make sense that he became that way because his personality was completely ruined after his devastating defeat.

It must have been that he did not choose any means and methods to gather the highest level characters and fight against the demon king of truth. But you’re saying this is explained in the prequel?

“..Is this right?”

Would it be different if I tried the crown prince route? If so, I wouldn’t have put together such ambiguous information as I do now.

I stopped thinking about it there. Any longer, it was the realm of reasoning rather than speculation.

“The last one.. Is unexpectedly gluttonous.”

Looking at the speed at which the plates are emptied at the bakery or the way I eat the stew I cooked, it was like that.

After extracting the characteristics like this, I was convinced that the person I knew was a double, and that this was the real lupus.

Because their personalities, behaviors, ways of speaking, and atmospheres are so different.

There is too much information, so it must have been confirmation bias. My thoughts hardened after reading Master Drake’s letter.

The glass knight who protected Kinel and Ariel when I was gone. I’ve never actually harmed anyone.

There is a side that seems a bit erratic, but he wasn’t a bad person.

“There was a grand route. The love line….”

While I was organizing my thoughts like that, there was a fact that suddenly flashed through my mind.

“..No matter how much it is, the saintess can’t give it to me anymore.”

A rival who will eventually fight with me over the nameless saint someday. The illustration included in the beta tester invitation email was like that.

As expected, I should aim for Mana Rose in the grade exam. I’ll have to stock up on items that our saint lady might like.

He’s obsessed with strength, so he’ll want a dragon heart that enhances his magical abilities.

Besides, the prince’s class is a magic swordsman. Because it is a combat class that is good at fighting using magic.

“Even if the saintess receives the dragon heart, it will be useless.”

She couldn’t even like a gift like this because she couldn’t fight against him. It’s grotesque to eat, and even if you make a weapon, you won’t be able to use it.

There are also skills I learned from training with the Heavenly Demon, so it was good for me to set up a flag to prevent approaching the saintess this time.

“..Can I yield a little?”

Because I ate the chocolate cake so well, I thought I should give you something in return.

***

That time. A man and a woman were talking in a demon castle somewhere.

“..Magic Hat. Where did you come in so injured?”

“I won’t tell you. Head. Because I will monopolize it!”

“That is absurd. Did I even overwrite it with lies so that I wouldn’t be able to recognize it with a battery?”

A gentleman wearing a monocle looked at the scarred, gray-haired magician with a moan. This solitary action was the kind he disliked.

“Whoops.. I got caught!”

“Isn’t wisdom twisted? Magic Hat… No matter how likely you are to kidnap the princess, don’t move personally from now on.”

“The princess? Was there such a person..? It seems she’s only met the prince?”

“Yes, no matter how much Locke tries to hide it, there’s no way I wouldn’t know.”

Even when Head told her her precautions, the woman in her magician’s hat just grinned and smiled in the mirror. Madness with reddened cheeks looking at the scars.

“I don’t know. Something like that Proving my love is more important now!”

“You can rest as you please. Magic hat. After all, foresight is imminent.”

Seeing such a situation, Head sighed a little and turned around as if it was always the case.

“Ah, head. Take this! You might get hurt too!”

At that moment, the distorted girl handed one of her black masks to Head.

“Hide your identity? Why?”

“hehehe, there is such a thing!”

“…”

After accepting the goods, the demon king felt something uneasy and moved his steps.

─Clap.

After leaving the room, he took out a book from his arms and looked around.

“..No matter how you think about it, it’s strange. Are my calculations wrong?”

He sat down at the table and started writing down something with a pen and paper with his other hand.

“Magic Hat came in injured somewhere.

There were no variables when he thought.

I had already confirmed before that Nex Aureus would obtain the cradle of the phoenix, and this time the foreknowledge should have come true.

“Now that the Apostle of Lust has been lost, there are only 6 men left…. Is the goal possible with this?”

He expressed his displeasure as he ticked the pen several times. He had to be recruited as a traitor to minimize future damage.

Equivalent Exchange. We should have gone in the direction of saving as many lives as possible. To fail again, now a sick feeling welled up in his heart.

“..Should I go to the academy myself?”

He muttered as he touched the red revolver that was on the desk.

I guessed that Magic Hat was heading to the academy. Showing interest in the failed kidnapping of Chartines, she has decided where to go.

“Looking at the possibilities, there are two.”

There was a high possibility that the demon king who went to Grand Hearts Academia was so scarred that he was attacked by ten girls or was a third person.

However, in the case of the ten girls, there is no way they can break through their authority.

To prevent Dennis from acting alone, White Magnolia was imprisoned in ignorance. It was a problem that could be solved by just leaving the academy.

He is also the one who designed the trick to keep the 2nd and 3rd place in check. That’s why I decided it wasn’t these two.

In addition, it was strange that the demon king of truth, who could make injuries ‘false’, would do that. It’s a problem that can be solved by just erasing it, but what the hell happened there?

“There must be something.”

Head comes to the idea that the existence of information he does not know is itself a risk factor, so he must remove it as safely as possible.

“..I need to start counting again.”

Writing down all possibilities with chalk on a wide blackboard, the omniscient demon king tried to find the person who had undone his power.
